“Moderates.” “Moderates.” There
are no Arab moderates. There are only clever Arabs and stupid
ones. The stupid ones say exactly what they mean: eliminate Israel. The clever
ones (and more and more are becoming so) mean exactly the same thing but they
are clever. After defeats in four wars and numerous clashes they have learned
the secret: “say nice, moderate things to guilt-ridden Jews, and they will love
you. They will throw money at you. And the Sinai. And hopefully, the “occupied
lands”…

There are no Arab moderates. And one
salutes in awe the ability of Arafat [today it is Abbas} the arch-murderer,
to persuade the Jews of lemmingism of his “change of heart,” of his
“moderation.” He must surely be a candidate for the Nobel Prize for not
laughing, for not rolling on the floor in hysteria.

He has renounced “terrorism?” Of course, but he
firmly maintains that to attack the Zionists who “occupy his country” is not
terrorism, but rather a war of national liberation. He accepts UN resolutions
242 and 338? To be sure, but within the context of all the UN resolutions on
“Palestine,” including resolution 181, the one that the “poor Palestinians”
rejected in 1947, the one that originally established a Jewish State. Today,
Arafat accepts it. He is good. Having been humiliated militarily he accepts it,
knowing that it would bring the Jews back to the boundaries of 1947. He accepts
all the UN resolutions, including the ones calling for Israel to allow the
“refugees” to return to their homes in Israel if they desire to. All the
“refugees” who were part of the “poor Palestinians” who attempted to wipe out Israel
in 1948. Today, thanks to the 40 years of birth, there are more than two
million of them.

He has recognized the existence of Israel.
True. Much in the same way that we all recognize the existence of earthquakes,
disease and roaches. Of course we recognize them, because they exist. We
recognize their existence in order to put an end to their existence. So too
with Arafat. He recognizes Israeli existence…

Arafat; the PLO; the “Palestinians:” the Arab
states. Models of deceit and deception, paragons of duplicity and perfidy.
Hands of blood and tongues of pretense. They plan new a Holocaust as they speak
peace.

No, there are no Arab “moderates.” They
are liars who cannot live together with themselves, let alone Israel. They all
believe that the Jewish State of Israel is a bandit, settler state, that has
stolen “Palestine” from them. And because of that, and with deep sadness, one
knows that there will be no peace. And let none of the comfortable denizens of
Peace Now in Beverly Hills or the woodpeckers of Hollywood or the pompous
pulpiteers of Reform liberal temples screech in indignation. Kahane does not
want peace! Kahane does not want peace? Where do I live and where do they live?
I, who live in Israel and serve in its army and whose children serve in the
army, desire peace a great deal more than the shallow liberals and leftists of
Peace Now and those paragons of Reform shallowness, Alexander Schindler and
Balfour Brickner, who regularly trumpet declarations of suicide through Peace.

There will be no peace because the “poor
Palestinians” do not wish peace. They wish “Palestine”. All of
it. And that includes Israel. So let us not delude ourselves
and let us not believe in delusions. The great Rebbe of Kutzk once said: “It is
a sin to deceive one’s neighbor. It is a crime to deceive oneself.”

Wishing peace, yearning for peace does not
mandate committing suicide for peace. And for all those who cry that Israel has
been fighting for 40 years, let it be stated flatly that the Jewish people have
been fighting for 4,000 years and had our forefathers been as depressed as some
of their present day children, we would have been long since gone as a people.

Cease the weeping and wailing! We have a state
of our own and it can be a glorious one and let us give thanks to the Almighty
for it. And let us understand clearly that a state is not given on a silver
platter; neither is it won by writing a check. A state is a precious thing that
is won by sacrifice and blood, and if there are those who are not prepared for
this, let them walk away and leave it to those who are – unafraid, who have
both faith in G-d and the willingness to climb the ramparts in battle.

We are weary? We are weary of having to serve
in the army each year to defend our state? How much would a Jew in Auschwitz
have given for the opportunity to see a Jewish army, a Jewish tank, a Jewish
plane – and with what joy he would have agreed to serve each year in a Jewish
army of a Jewish State, created so as to help guarantee that never again will
there be an Auschwitz for its Jewish citizens!

Peace? Of course we want peace. Who does not
want peace? It is not the monopoly of the guilt-ridden and self-hating
hypocrites, the artists and intellectuals (sic) of the left. We all wish peace;
we all fervently pray for peace. We all look for the day when the nations shall
beat their swords into ploughshares. But, meanwhile, as they continue to have
swords with which to destroy us, let us not be so mad as to wave ploughshares.

Give up land. For “peace” that the “poor
Palestinian” is prepared to grant us? The ultimate peace of the dead? Are we
mad? The ones who launched four wars of aggression against Israel and lost for
wars of aggression, dictate terms to us? The ones who launched four wars of
aggression and a thousand terrorist attacks, who slew thousands of Jews, and
who lost – now present us with demands? They insist that we, who won, give up
land? Let the Arab aggressors and murderers learn a very basic rule of life: Losers
lose. Winners win. Losers and especially losers who launched
wars of murderous aggression, do not dictate terms. Aggression is not a game in
which one attempts to wipe out innocent people, loses and then returns to “Go”.
No, aggression is a gamble and if the aggressor loses – let him know the full
bitterness of his reality – that he has lost. Then,
perhaps, he will think deeply and carefully before embarking on another
adventure. For let the “poor Palestinian” know in every fiber of his body, that
he had best leave well enough alone. Let him accept a peace that will see him
establish a state of his own in Jordan, if he can do it. For should he be so
foolish as to begin another murderous war of aggression, let him be certain
that that which he still possess in Jordan will be ours too.

Land for peace? By all
means. The Jews who were the victims of countless efforts to destroy them and
who are the rightful owners, will keep the land and be prepared to graciously
give the murderous Arabs, peace.

And above all, no guilt! What
causes a Jewish people that has suffered thousands of dead and tens of
thousands of wounded and maimed at the hands of the Arabs, fail to understand
that they are a cruel and implacable enemy, bent on destroying Israel and
decimating the Jews? What causes Jews who see the brutality and treachery and
viciousness with which Arabs massacre each other, refuse to see what our fate
would be if we would be so mad as to give them the slightest opportunity to do
to us what they dream to do to us? Above all, what makes a Jewish people that
has only one land and has returned to that land, to feel guilty over it and to
accept the myth of a “Palestine” and a “Palestinian people?”

There is no Palestinian people and there is no
Palestine! There is not, there never was, and please G-d there will never be.

[Twenty six years after the Rabbi
spoke the warnings written in this article was the start of a severe
economic crises in America. Morality is at its lowest level. Racial
tensions are high. Anti-Semitism took a dangerous escalation- the Jews fear for
their future. Dangers rioting today, because the President that the Left
wanted was not elected. Will the Jews
come home to Israel?]

I was born in this country, and I can’t recall ever, in my life, as much open
and vicious Jew-hatred as I have seen in our time right now, in this
country. I travel around from city to
city, and in every city Jews tell me it is unbearable. Attacks upon synagogues, attacks upon Jews,
all of which are of course buried.
Because the synagogue doesn’t want it to be know. The ADL wants to report “there were 55
incidents this year in the United States”, when actually, there were 55 incidents
in one hour in the United States.
On radio programs which I am on – the telephone calls – open, open
(anti-Semitism).

Two Reasons for Increased Anti-Semitism

What
has happened? What has happened in natural
terms? Of course, in divine
terms, the Almighty is ending it for us.
But what is happening in natural terms?
Two basic changes have taken place in this country over the last twenty
years. It began slowly, now it is
reaching its crescendo. We have seen the
death of what I call the “Auschwitz syndrome”.
What is the “Auschwitz syndrome”?
After World War II, it was hard to be an anti-Semite, even for an
anti-Semite. It was just difficult. And then the years passed – ten years, twenty
years, twenty-five years, thirty years, and a generation arose which was not
born at that time. And the “Auschwitz
syndrome” began to fade away, and the guilt began to fade away. No matter how many Holocaust programs were shown
on television, every year they had less and less impact. Indeed, they reach a point whereby they encourage
anti-Semitism, whereupon the anti-Semite says: “ Hey, you know, I know Jews,
and the Nazis, and they were probably right.” That’s what happens today. It fades away. And to help things along, there was the rise
of a strong Israel. Suddenly, Israel was winning. And that allowed the anti-Semite to cut the
albatross. Now it was OK. You see, the Jew are Nazis, and they
persecute the Palestinians, and now it was OK.
So the “Auschwitz syndrome” faded, and it’s gone for all practical
purposes. And you hear people speak
about the holocaust that the Israelis are perpetrating upon the Palestinians. A
Holocaust…So all the Israelis and all the Jews who ever called me a Nazi and
didn’t realize that when you call a Jew a Nazi, you cheapen the Holocaust. And you cheapen the concept of Nazi, which is
a very unique thing. And by you calling
a second Jew a Nazi, what you are telling the world is” Jews can also be
Nazis. Foolish people and tiny dwarfs
and pygmies, grasshoppers.

So
the “Auschwitz syndrome” is gone. And another thing has happened. After World War II, and until perhaps ten
years ago, the American people lived in an economic luxury such as we have not
seen ever in world history. No Roman
emperor lived as well as the average American did from World War II on, until
fairly recently. Life was good. And when life is good, the anti-Semite hates
Jews quietly. It’s not a big deal to
him. He hates Jews, but he’s too
interested in the Monday night football game.
I myself am amazed that so many people are here tonight that
don’t want to see the Giants massacre the Colts…

The Economic Crises

So
when times are good and he has his job, he has his beer and he has his TV set,
he has everything – he hates Jews, but it’s not that important to him. But as the economic sands of time begin to
run out, and as things get bad and they get worse and suddenly there is a
chill, there is a fear. I can sense a
fear in this country – people are afraid of what is going to happen, and they
have every right to fear it. This is a
country which is on the verge of economic horror, horror. In two years they expect the national debt to
go from 3.7 trillion to 5 trillion dollars, so they work for months and months
– this fiasco between Congress and this administration – and they say, “we are
going to cut 500 million dollars in five years”. Five years!
It is a joke – It’s a drop in the bucket. This is a country which is dying because the
thing that was saving it was the fact that the Japanese are buying Rockefeller
Center, Rockefeller Plaza – don’t be angry.
If they stopped buying it, no one
is going to cover the national debt. And
they are stopping.

The dollar is a weak dollar today. Can
you imagine: The Israeli shekel has held its own against the dollar now for a
year. Don’t clap! It doesn’t mean that the Israeli shekel is
strong. The shekel is weak; the dollar
is just as weak. The Japanese don’t want
dollars anymore, they want German marks.
And they’re investing now in South Korea, Thailand, Singapore. The banks here are shaking, they’re
tottering. In their greed, in the 1960’s
and 70’s, they gave loans to anybody.
The Congo came – you want money, take the money. Mexico came – take 100 million dollars –
take, take it, take. Suddenly, the Congo
couldn’t pay back. If that’s what a
banker is…did he expect the Congo to ever pay back in total? So hundreds of millions of bad loans are
being held by major banks: Chase
Manhattan, Citicorp – and they are in deep, deep trouble today. And on top of that, suddenly the real estate
market has collapsed and they are now holding several more hundred million
dollars of bad mortgages. That’s the
tragedy. That’s why suddenly, there’s a
hurry talk bout Chase merging with City.

There’s a myth that your money is
insured for $100,000. If the FDIC had 60 cents for every hundred dollars that
you have, I’ll swim back to Israel.
There is a myth that they are going to bail out the Savings & Loan
with 40 billion dollars. If they can
make it with less than half a trillion, it will be a miracle.

So for years, the new economists said, “Don’t worry about deficits, it
doesn’t matter. Deficits don’t
matter? I know that when my bank account
is in deficit, it matters to me.
The bank calls me up and says, “Rav Kahane, we have a little
problem. Would you like to come and
cover it?” A city can go a little deeper
into debt than I can, and a state deeper yet, and a country can go a little
deeper yet; but, in the end you have to pay the piper. So, America has lived beyond its means –
extra credit, credit cards – and give anybody credit, give kids credit cards –
anybody. Now it’s time to pay the piper,
there is no money, there is no money.
And should the economic collapse come it is the Jew who will be
blamed. It is the Jew. You can hear it already. You can small it in
the air.

The Racial tension – In all Colors

I
was on a radio program in Chicago. Every
single caller blamed the Gulf oil crisis on the Jews. Every single call. What you have now is the getting together of
all these crises – the economic crisis, the racial crisis – and there is a
serious racial crisis in the country.
It’s a serious one. It is a
dangerous one. Whites hate Blacks and Blacks hate Whites and they both hate
Jews. It is a terrible, terrible
thing. It’s not just Whites and
Blacks. Now in the West, it’s the
Hispanics and the Anglos – tremendous crises, which only proves all the more
the myth of the melting pot. Uh nechtiga tag –what melting pot? A
melting pot is fine until there is a terrible crisis and then two “objects’
occupy the same job at the same time.
That’s a law of physics, which I’ve changed a bit…

So
it’s not an accident that Jesse Helms is now putting on TV ads talking about
the unfairness of quotas. Quotas are
unfair. Of course, that is his trump
card. People are angry about quotas and
affirmative action, etc. And Blacks are
angry. You think that Blacks have no
argument? You think they are all bad? –
that everything the Blacks do is wrong?
You think that Bob Grant is your kind of guy? G-d forbid!
This Jew-hating fascist type.
That he says something good many, many times –you’re right. You think that bad people don’t often say
correct things? Of course they do – but
watch him, watch him and be careful of such people! People who are anti-Black will always be
anti-Jewish too. One doesn’t have to
love Farrakhan or Jesse Jackson to realize that he should be careful of racism
of all kinds – White and Black – be careful, because we get stuck in the
middle. Because the Whites and Blacks
hate us both.

The Pre-War Depression: Not a Criteria

We
have a serious problem – the economic crisis cannot be averted. There is no
way. This country is in for terrible,
terrible times. People tell me in the depression
it was also bad. It’s true. But first of all, who knows what would have
happened in this country if World War II had not ended the depression? If you think that Roosevelt ended it, you
don’t know history. World War II ended
it. It gave jobs finally, but more to
the point, it was a different era back then.
The American people at that time were a much stronger people in
character. Today, after 40-50 years of
good life and soft life, and the materialistic life, people are into
themselves. Unbelievable ego. Everything
is me, me – my life, my body, my-me, my-mine.
People are incapable today of making sacrifices and that’s the great,
great difference between today and what happened in the depression. The person who is fairly poor and gets poorer
– not so terrible. The person who has it and lost it becomes a wild animal, a
raging animal. He’ll not accept it and will look for a scapegoat. He’ll look for some target to blame. We Jews are the most visible, the most highly
visible in terms of power, in terms of money.
Of course, Wasps have more money than Jews have. Certainly, Jews are not into U.S. Steel and
banking and so on, and the real, real money is not Jewish money, but that
doesn’t matter because Jews are in those professions that are most visible.

How to Gauge anti-Semitism: Go to a Bar

So
in the bars, it sits the jealousy and the envy of the Jews which leads to
hate. The tragedy as I’ve said a million
times is that the average Jewish leader in this country has no idea what people
say ago about Jews in bars, because the average Jew doesn’t go into a bar – and
he should; he should be compelled to go into a bar. Every rabbi before getting “smicha”, before
being ordained, should be compelled to go into a bar and find out what the real
world is like. It isn’t a joke. I’m
serious. To hide in some little ghetto,
you never know what the world is. They
hate us with a passion out there, with a virulence which is frightening to see
and to hear. On every radio program I go
on, I hear, “why should we give you guys three billion dollars a year”? Anytime some fellow from the Israeli
consulate is asked that question, he comes up with the answer, “well, we help
you too, etc.” Baloney! The only way to get rid of that question is
to answer as I do, “I don’t want the money!
I want Israel to be a free enterprise state and allow private enterprise
to flourish and then we don’t want your money, I don’t want your charity.” So, that of course gets rid of the question,
but it doesn’t get rid of the anti-Semite.
He’ll go home mutter in his beer and pretzels. He’s still there. He’s still there.

Role of the Prophet – To See It and say It

The
rabbis tell us that G-d told Moses and Aaron.
“I’ll make you Jewish leaders on one condition that if they throw stones
at you, you’ll accept it.” Rather to be
pelted with stones and not with dollars.
That’s what a Jewish leader has to be!
Say the bitter truth, even though they won’t like you. They won’t like you; they’ll attack you, but
tell the Jews the truth if you love them.
If you love Jews, tell them the things which will make them angry, but
which can save their lives. That’s what
you have to do! Think carefully about
what I’m saying, and that is why we created this group called ZEERO, Zionist
Emergency Evacuation Rescue Organization.
It’s a name that provokes. And we
hope that as we spread this idea it will provoke Jewish leaders to attack so we
can debate the controversy that arises.
People will say he’s right; he’s wrong, and so on. Of course, this is probably the worst thing
you can ever tell any Jewish leader, any Federation leader – that he should
leave here, and go to Israel. What’ill
do there? .

The
rabbis say: “Who is wise? He who sees
the future”. It’s no big deal to see
“today.” A Jewish leader has to see
tomorrow.

Living in Israel – Difficult; Living Elsewhere –
Impossible

It
is coming here! It is coming here! Friday night I spoke in Brooklyn in shul, and
I had to walk through Bensonhurst, a white neighborhood – nice people, because
they’re white…Watching the people, the kids, you can smell the violence, you
can see the hate, you can see the envy – frustrated, bored, looking for
action. You can see it. Those are the potential mobs. And G-d forbid, we will see it. So ZEERO is a very serious project of Kach,
and I mean a serious one. And I know how
hard it is to go to Israel – it is really hard.
Hard to make a living. My son
goes into the army every single year.
It’s dangerous and so on. All of
it is true. Everything that’s all
true. That’s all true. It’s hard to live in Israel, but it will be
impossible to live here, and if we go to Israel, at least there we can change
the country. Of course we can change it
and make it better and make it tremendous and make it safe. Of curse we can do that if we have the power
in the government, but here there is nothing you can do to change it, it’s out
of our hands. We are a minority and we
are strangers here. We’re stranger in
this land, no matter how many years we’ve been here.

It’s
not an accident that so few German Jews survived the camps. The Polish Jew did better. Why?
Because the Polish Jew wasn’t surprised.
It didn’t shock him that gentiles could behave like this. It didn’t surprise him, so he wasn’t
shattered inside, he wasn’t’ broken. But
the German Jew was psychologically shattered.
How could this be? I’m a German.
I’m a German. How could it be? How can you do this to me? The Pole knew he was a Jew. The German was broken because his whole
illusion was shattered. And that’s how
the American Jew lives. “I’m an
American”. It’s the gentile who will
teach you so quickly that you’re a Jew.

It’s
no just in the bars, in the working class bars the anti-Semitism that you
see. When you see the news media and
their attitude towards Israel; it’s not anti-Israel – it’s anti-Semitism. Do you know why they hate Jews? Because among intellectuals there is a
jealousy of Jews. When Truman Capote,
the famous author, a sickness, a disease who represents all that is sick about
Western culture – when he spoke about the publishing business being a Jewish
mafia – you can see the jealousy. [He
writes] how Jews are over represented in publishing, in broadcast, in movies,
etc. Of course it’s so – they have
talent. Untalented people don’t like to
think it is because of talent. They like
to think they run it because their friends, their uncles, their aunts and so on
and so forth. The hate runs across the
board. You can see Peter Jennings’
anti-Semitism. You can see it! And when I hold press conferences in Israel
and I see them sitting around, you can watch them all – the hatred.

(Rabbi Meir Kahane, may G-d avenge his blood, had the ONLY answer to exist in safety in our land. Thousands of Jews were killed, because we didn’t do what had to be done. We lost a giant of a man. bg)

The Torah states clearly: “And you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you . . . but if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then those whom you allow to remain will be like thorns in your eyes and thistles in your sides and will torment you in the land in which you dwell” (Numbers 33.52.55).

The Biblical commentators are explicit “And you shall drive out the inhabitants and then you shall inherit it and be able to exist in it. And if you do not, you will not be able to exist in it”

(Rashi).

“When you shall eliminate the inhabitants of the land, then you shall be privileged to inherit the land and pass it down to your children But if you do not eliminate them, even though you will conquer the land, you will not be privileged to hand it down to your children” (Sforno).

“This verse refers to nations other than the seven nations found there . . . Not only will they hold that part of the land that you did not conquer, but even concerning that part which you did conquer and settle in, they will distress you and say, ‘Rise and get out’” (Ohr HaChaim).

And so the Midrash tells us: “Joshua sent three messages to the inhabitants [of Canaan]. He who wishes to evacuate – let him evacuate; he who wishes to make peace – let him make peace, he who wishes to make war – let him make war” (Vayikra Rabba 17.6).

The choices are given. Either leave, or prepare for war, or make peace. The choice of “making peace” is explained by Rabbis as involving three things. To begin with, the non-Jew must agree to adopt the seven basic Noahide Laws, which include the prohibitions against idolatry, blasphemy, immorality, bloodshed, robbery, eating flesh cut from a living animal, and a positive action – adherence to social laws. Once he has done this, he has the status of a resident stranger (ger toshav) who is allowed to live in Eretz Yisrael (Avoda Zara 64b) if he also accepts the conditions of tribute and servitude.

The Biblical commentator, the Radak, explains (in his commentary to Joshua 9:7): “If they uproot idolatry and accept the seven Noahide laws, they must also pay tribute and serve Israel and be subject under them as it is written (Deuteronomy 20:11, ‘All the people . . . shall be tributaries to you and shall serve you.’”

Maimonides (Hilchot Melachim 6:11) declares: “If they make peace and accept the seven Noahide laws, we do not kill them for they are tributary. If they agreed to pay tribute but did not accept servitude or accepted servitude but not tribute, we do not acquiesce until they have accepted both. And servitude means that they shall be humble and low and not raise their head in Israel. Rather, they shall be subjects under us and not be appointed to any position over Jews ever.”

Far better than foolish humans did the Almighty understand the dangers inherent in allowing a people that believes the land belongs to it free and unfettered residence, let alone ownership, proprietorship, citizenship. What more natural thing than to ask to regain what it rightly believes to be its own land? And this over and above the need to create a unique and distinctly separate Torah culture that will shape the Jewish people into a holy nation. That uniqueness can only be guaranteed by the non-Jew having no sovereignty, ownership, or citizenship that could allow him to shape the state’s destiny and character.

And so, concerning any non-Jew, Maimonides writes: “‘You shall not place over yourself a stranger who is not of your brethren’ (Deuteronomy 17:15). Not only a king, but the prohibition is for any authority in Israel. Not an officer in the armed forces. . .not even a public official in charge of the distribution of water to the fields . And there is no need to mention that a judge or chieftain shall only be from the people of Israel. . . Any authority that you appoint shall only be from the midst of your people” (Hilchot Melachim 1:4).

The purpose is clear. The non-Jew has no share in the land. He has no ownership, citizenship or destiny in it. The non-Jew who wishes to live in Israel must accept basic human obligations. Then he may live in Israel as a resident stranger, but never as a citizen with any proprietary interest in the land or with any political say; never as one who can hold any public office which will give him domination over a Jew or a share in the authority of the country. Accepting these conditions, he admits that the land is not his and therefore he may live in Israel quietly, separately, observing his own private life, with all religious, economic social and cultural rights. Refusing this, he cannot remain.

This is Torah. This is Jewishness. Not the dishonest pseudo-“Judaism” chanted by liberal secularists who pick and choose that “Judaism” that finds favor in their eyes and who reject that which their own gentilized concepts find unacceptable

Shabbat Shalom

For 120 years, Noah fulfilled G-d's directive to build an ark, all the while warning people about the impending flood. The Midrash relates that when people would pass by and ask Noah what he was doing, he would reply, "The Almighty is bringing a flood upon the world." But the people disregarded Noah's warning and reacted with vicious mockery (Bereishit Rabba 30:7).

This Midrash seems to contain an implicit criticism of Noah. After all, for 120 years Noah warned that G-d would destroy the world if the people continued in their evil ways. But no one listened. In the end, the flood wiped out the entire world, except for Noah and his family. Not a single person was convinced to do teshuva by Noah's warnings. Not one! Noah's life endeavor of 120 years was essentially a failure.Or was it?

The story of Noah provides us with a concrete illustration of the true role of a Jewish prophet. Certainly, the primary purpose of his warnings and rebukes is to inspire his audience to do teshuva. But unlike what one might think, if the prophet does not succeed in convincing people to do teshuva, he did not necessarily fail. Deeper reflection will reveal that the rebuke in and of itself has value.If we look at the prophets of Israel, we will notice an amazing fact: Generally speaking, they were dismal failures. It seems as if they influenced no one. The people were not interested in listening to them and did not cease their evil ways. But does that mean their warnings had no value? Of course not. After all, the words of the prophets are inscribed forever in our holy bible.

When G-d appoints Ezekiel to be a prophet, He says, "I am sending you to the Children of Israel...they have rebelled against Me...you shall say to them, 'Thus says the L-rd G-d.' And they--whether they hear or refuse to hear...--will know a prophet has been amongst them" (Ezekiel 2:3-5). Immediately afterwards, G-d states, "But the house of Israel will not hearken to you..." (ibid. 3:7). Can this be? If G-d knows they won't listen, why send Ezekiel and expose him to so much humiliation and abuse?

He does so because the proclamation of truth has value even if it has no apparent influence at the moment it is proclaimed. What is its value? As G-d says: The people "will know that a prophet has been amongst them." Even if there are no immediate results, the warnings have value in that they bring G-d's word into the world. The prophet who expresses divine truth is giving expression to G-d's presence in this world, showing us that the world is not a free-for-all - that there is right and wrong, reward and punishment. By proclaiming the truth, the prophet, in essence, sanctifies G-d's Name.

Furthermore, while G-d knows for certain that the nation won't listen to a particular rebuke, the righteous, who are obligated to rebuke, do not know that (Shabbat 55a). In other words, we can never be sure that our words won't influence people, and therefore we must say them. Even more, we must realize that our words can have an impact tens, or even hundreds, of years down the road, as the Talmud states about prophets whose influence was not apparent during their lifetime: "Prophecy which is needed for future generations is written down" (Megillah 14a).

My father, HY"D, saw his major role as one of a "prophet" who must warn and rebuke the people. That is, to say the truth of G-d- the same truth which no one else dares express thanks to 101 different excuses ("it's not practical", "it's not realistic," etc.). And while it may appear sometimes that all efforts are in vain, such is not the case in the long run. In the long run, it is sticking with the truth that makes a real impact on the nation and the course of history.Darka Shel Torah, 1997Shabbat Shalom!If you are interested in reading more divrei torah from Rabbi Meir and Binyamin Kahane HY"D, you can purchase the book at both of the following two links:http://brennbooks.com/http://www.amazon.com/Kahane-Parsha-Meir/dp/0988

"'And [Noah] sent forth a dove...but the dove found no rest for the sole of its foot, and it returned to him into the ark' (Genesis 8:8-9). Rabbi Shimon said: Had it found a resting place it would not have returned. And similarly does it say: '[Israel] sat among the nations and found no resting place' (Lamentations 1:3). Had they found a resting place they would not have returned to Eretz Yisrael. And similarly: 'And among those nations you shall find no peace, neither shall the sole of your foot have rest' (Deuteronomy 28:65). Had they found a resting place they would have never returned" (Bereishit Rabba 33:6).

The divine proclamation is clear: There will be no rest for the Jew in the Exile because if there would be rest and tranquility and comfort and ease, the Jew would NEVER return to Eretz Yisrael. How well the Rabbis knew the Jews!!!

No amount of Halacha, no amount of admonition, no amount of religious observance would ever convince the overwhelming majority to leave an Exile in which they find ease and rest for the soles of their feet. And that is why there is an iron law of Judaism that decrees that the Exile shall never be anything but a place of terror and fear and tragedy.

I wonder if the average Jew knows how much he is hated in America. I wonder if the average Jew has the slightest knowledge of the immense, deep, poisonous venom that is Jew-hatred in the United States. I doubt it. We live in our ghettos, our increasingly golden ghettos, and see and hear nothing, and we sit satisfied in our glatt isolation that so enables us to escape from the reality of the vicious bile and venom. We live in our worlds of dreams and illusions and know nothing.

Can we imagine what will be if, G-d forbid, there is an economic collapse of massive proportions? Can we imagine what will be if the American economy bursts- an economy that is one huge balloon filled with the gas of huge debt, unbridled spending and borrowing, trade deficit, a banking and savings and loan system that sits on the thin ice of loans that can never be repaid, an economy that is one huge fraud as jobs and products slip away into the Japanese-Asian orbit?

Can we imagine what will be when the violent American who has been hopelessly spoiled by 40 years of unprecedented prosperity and wallowing in the mud of materialism suddenly faces economic ruin? Can we imagine what will happen when the life of three automobiles to a family, VCRs, a TV in each room, vacations, fun, fun, fun - suddenly comes to a screeching stop?

Such a person will become a wild animal, literally incapable of accepting a life of sharp economic displacement. He will follow anyone who promises to restore him to the days of beer and daisies. And the scapegoat will be - the Jew.

And so, I do not even bother any longer to persuade Jews of the halachic obligation to live in Eretz Yisrael, of the positive reason for going there. They will not go. Together they sit in the fleshpots, in a sensational display of Jewish unity against leaving the golden land. Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, ultra-Orthodox, all bound in a pledge of allegiance to the good life and all that for which it stands.

I can only warn them about the ultimate halachic scholar for the Jew in the Exile. Who is that? Why, surely, the gentile.
